Hosts hit back for win after early Savea double
There have been moments over the past couple of weeks that have made us question South Africa’s status as the standard bearers in world rugby.

De Italiaanse zangers en de Velvet Underground invloed die ik erin meen te horen veranderen daar ook niks aan. De drie vaste bandleden doen afwisselend de leadzang. Er zijn natuurlijk wel meer bands met drie zangers, maar Bar Italia maakt er een gewoonte van om in elk nummer alle drie de bandleden aan het woord te laten.
Ik ontdekte dat ik niet het talent heb om alles te volgen wat er in deze video gebeurt terwijl ik tegelijkertijd van de muziek geniet. Mijn aandacht trekt automatisch steeds weer naar de muziek. Maar dat de video ietwat weird is, is niet aan mijn aandacht ontsnapt.

De Ark van Noach is zaterdag aangekomen bij zijn pretpark in de Maashaven. Het enorme schip, gehuurd door ondernemer Wim Beelen en eigendom van Aad Peeters, heeft daarmee na maanden van plannen, wachten en onzekerheid eindelijk zijn definitieve plek in Rotterdam bereikt.
Na een onstuimige week boekte Feyenoord een ogenschijnlijk eenvoudige zege op NEC. In De Goffert werd er met 1-3 gewonnen. Toch ging het na afloop vooral over het ontbreken van Anis Hadj Moussa. "Het is niet niks als er bedragen voorbijkomen die je leven kunnen veranderen."
